They're small toys in capsules you can buy from Japanese vending machines. I have an obscene amount of them from my early collecting days. Most import shops sell them as sets, though you can find individual ones at conventions or places that actually have gashapon dispensers.

You can order the Metal Slug set here.

A while ago, a member was selling boxes of mini figures for $15 shipped. I bought one, kept the pieces I wanted (Macross and a few Sakura figures) and added a bunch of my own that I'm done with. Anyone want to keep this going? I'll put in as much as fits in a $15 flat rate box. PM me if you're interested.

I'm not normally into stuff like this but I'm really thinking about dropping the cash to get this.

Also thought about buying the Play Arts Kai Vanquish figures.

Finally got around to getting this fucker: http://www.collectiondx.com/review/chogokin/the_big_o

Been looking at some of the Medicom RAH figures specifically the MGS Snakes namely the Square Camo/Zombie and CCCP versions.

That review was written by my late cousin, and I actually got a chance to mess with this thing before he passed away. The Chogokin stuff is always top notch...nice purchase man!

Where on earth did you find all these rare ass mechas at? I didn't even known the Gingaioh came in Black and Gold.

Oh I got it many years ago from Mandarake's online shop. If you check on it regularly, good stuff (toywise) pops up. Not so much for games though.

Yeah I think they almost made a black edition for almost every figure. I've got quite of few of the normal and blacks of a bunch of sentai figs. I found some in my storage that I completely forgot I had, haha. It's been years since I actively collected this stuff. I just went in this past weekend to find some new pieces to cycle into my display at the house.


the irony in that picture made my day, thanks dude

Yeah it made me chuckle while takin' the pic. haha
